Swapping wheels on the DEWALT DWE402 Angle Grinder is pretty user-friendly. The manufacturer highlights it as a durable tool, but in terms of switching wheels, it's the design features that really come in handy.
One great feature, from what we've found, is the Quick-Change Wheel Release. You don't even need a wrench to change wheels, which is super convenient, especially when you're in the middle of a project. This definitely cuts down on the downtime and keeps you moving.
There's also a spindle lock button on top of the grinder, which locks the spindle in place while you're changing the wheel. Some people mention it takes a little practice to get the hang of it, but most agree it makes the process easier after you get used to it.
Plus, it has a one-touch guard that lets you rotate the safety guard without tools. This is really useful when you need to adjust the position or just keep things safe without any fuss.
The grinder itself is compact and has an ergonomic design. While it’s generally easy to handle because it's lightweight and well-balanced, some folks say it feels a bit different if you're switching from another tool.
But once you get comfortable with it, most people seem to appreciate the design.
Overall, most find that changing wheels on the DEWALT DWE402 is quick and straightforward, especially if you're used to angle grinders.
But even if you're new to it, you'll probably adjust pretty fast with this model's user-friendly features.
